steering LINCOLN MKZ 2014 Manual PDF

• A connected Bluetooth-enabledphone must have adequate
network coverage, battery power
and signal strength.
• The vehicle must have battery power and be located in the United
States, Canada or in a territory in
which 911 is the emergency
number.
In the Event of a Crash
Not all crashes deploy an airbag or
activate the fuel pump shut-off
(which would trigger 911 Assist);
however, SYNC tries to contact
emergency services if 911 Assist
triggers. If a connected phone sustains
damage or loses connection to SYNC,
SYNC searches for, and tries to
connect to, any available previously
paired phone and tries to make the
call to 911.
Before making the call:
• SYNC provides a short window of time (about 10 seconds) to cancel
the call. If you fail to cancel the
call, SYNC attempts to dial 911.
• SYNC says the following, or a similar message: "SYNC will
attempt to call 911, to cancel the
call, press Cancel on your screen
or press and hold the phone button
on your steering wheel." If you do not cancel the call, and
SYNC makes a successful call, a
pre-recorded message plays for the
911 operator, and then the
occupant(s) in your vehicle is able to
talk with the operator. Be prepared to
provide your name, phone number
and location immediately, because
not all 911 systems are capable of
receiving this information
electronically.
911 Assist May Not Work If
• Your cellular phone or 911 Assist
hardware sustains damage in a
crash.
• The vehicle's battery or the SYNC system has no power.
• The phone(s) thrown from your vehicle are the ones paired and
connected to the system.
911 Assist Privacy Notice
When you turn on 911 Assist, it may
disclose to emergency services that
your vehicle has been in a crash
involving the deployment of an airbag
or activation of the fuel pump
shut-off. Certain versions or updates
to 911 Assist may also be capable of
electronically or verbally disclosing to
911 operators your vehicle location or
other details about your vehicle or
crash to assist 911 operators to
provide the most appropriate
emergency services. If you do not
want to disclose this information, do
not turn the feature on.

inspection. Vehicle Health Report only
monitors certain systems
electronically monitored by your
vehicle and will not monitor or report
the status of any other system, (such
as brake lining wear). Failure to
perform scheduled maintenance and
regularly inspect your vehicle may
result in vehicle damage and serious
injury.

the United States.
